Spoken like someone who's never done housekeeping. 4 hours a day is a pretty normal amount if you need to wash clothes, sweep, mop, do a family's worth of laundry, prepare food, clean dishes, etc.
- toasterlovin 7y agoMy wife is a stay at home mom of three kids. She spends many hours every day on the kids and nowhere near 4 hours on housework.
- AlexTWithBeard 7y agoI did housekeeping. Unless you're a neat freak and insist on ironing and starching your socks, one hour a day is plenty. If you have a large family, then delegation is the answer. Laundry and dishes can (and should) be offloaded to the offsprings.
- michannne 7y agoYeah I am also wondering where this 4hr per day statistic is coming from. Dinner for two usually takes no longer than 1 hr a day, dishes usually put in the dishwasher every other day, and we reserve Sundays for cleaning, laundry and taking out recyclables. I cannot fathom anyone taking 4 hrs every single day to do housework, unless you have some kind of aversion to a dirty clothes bin or dishes piling up in the sink or Mr. Clean holding a gun to your head.
